Best Answer

Using the mystery of arithmetic, you can calculate the amount of sales tax by multiplying your purchases by the tax rate to get the amount of sales tax. In this case $7.63 X .081 = .62. To get the total you multiply the amount of purchases by 1 plus the tax rate: $7.63 X 1.081 = $8.25.

8.1% = 0.081

0.081 x $7.63 = 61.803¢

$7.63 + 8.1% tax = $7.63 + $0.61803 = $8.24803

They'll charge you $8.25 at the register.
